Any reason why this couldn't be expanded to a vast range of places, seeing as it reads the same Foursquare API?
Yeah, make it a smart phone app, charge $2.99 for it and include everywhere that foursquare supports, money to be made! Although maybe foursquare could just release a similar feature.
Good idea. One suggestion: vary the colors of the columns. Green for quiet days, red for busy days.
The size of the columns already indicates that. I think varying the colors as well would be confusing.
Google "comparison chart" and see how multiple" rel="nofollow">http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://printgreener.com/... facets can inform a viewer in a simple way.

looks sweet! a comment: before spotting the caption, it isn't obvious if the graph shows business or desirability.
Another cool feature would be a temporal zoom - let me see that data juxtaposed over different months or weeks (I imagine it likely that the busy/free days vary depending on the season); conversely, it would be useful to be able to zoom in to the hour for specific days (best hours to visit today). That would help either plan vacation visit agendas, or determine an intra-day itinerary.

2. I agree with the parent about the color coding. It might be more clear if you use a red-green spectrum for each day (e.g. red for the evening, when things might be more busy, and green for the morning, when things might be less busy).
